April 24, 2018 By Wendy Wickham Leave a Comment

I love Wait But Why. Well-researched. Well-written. Random topics. Tim Urban writes about whatever catches his fancy and uses his blog as an opportunity to research whatever catches his fancy.

My Why

February 27, 2018 By Wendy Wickham Leave a Comment

 This is the original TED talk for Start with Why.  If you have not seen this before, it is worth 20 minutes of your time. Before I left my last job, I watched many highly skilled employees drop out. These are the types of folks that employers say they want – intrinsically motivated, hard-working, […]
